Ask club members about their projects
When to use this goal
For students who attend a club (robotics, art, gaming, chess, music) and work alone next to members without talking to them. Present levels decide fit. Questions can be spoken, signed, typed, or from a device.
- Baseline
- Have the club leader or a staff member tally questions to peers during 2 or 3 meetings. Ask the student which members they would like to talk with and what they want to know.
- Tips
- Count each question aimed at a member about club work. A question during a game counts. Club leaders can help by pairing members on tasks. Keep adult presence light so the club stays a peer space.
- Limits
- Data collection by club leaders can be uneven; a simple tally card helps. The goal does not show whether the student finds the club worthwhile; check in with the student.

- Count each occurrence of the defined behavior per club meeting.
- Keep the observation length the same each session. If it varies, compare rate per minute, not raw counts.
- Write the behavior definition at the top of the sheet so all data collectors count the same thing.
